With the help of Feature Lists, you can assign or restrict features to each cPanel account. Feature lists can be created from the Feature Manager option present inside the Packages section. In this article, we’re gonna walk you through the uses of Feature lists in WHM and its benefit.

A feature option is only available in Reseller Hosting, Dedicated Hosting, and VPS Hostings. A Shared Hosting user cannot use Feature lists as there is no WHM in Shared Hosting plans.

Several features can be assigned/declined in the feature lists option in WHM. I’m mentioning some of them below:

• FTP Settings
• File Manager
• Cron Jobs
• Webmail
• PhpMyAdmin
• MySQL
• Password & Security
• Subdomains
• Server Information
• Addon domains
• Email Accounts
• Advance Zone Editor
• Images
• JetBackup

These are a small list of features that you can assign from feature lists in WHM. Create a feature list to assign your desired features to cPanel.
